The writing/poetry contest is the winner! The caption contest and raffle were a close second and third, and no one voted for the followers option. So, we are doing a writing/poetry contest. The assignment is this: write a short story or a poem about Akire meeting Healer Dawkins (the roaming healer who visited Lloches sometimes, and whose apprentice Akire aspired to be) for the first time. Here are some rules/details to help you:
‣ To enter your submission, either post it under here, or send it to my email (erika_purdy@my.ethelwalker.org).
‣ Your entry cannot be more than 500 words long.
‣ Akire was 7 when Healer Dawkins first visited Lloches.
‣ No copying others!
‣ Things I am looking for: good spelling/grammar, good character representations (Akire-wonderstruck, Healer Dawkins-kind, Ryda-doubtful, Xerin-encouraging, Athan-bored), attention grabbing (for stories, this means a good plot line, for poems, description and detail), foreshadowing (ex: Ryda shooing Akire away from Dawkins a little too quickly, Dawkins asking Akire if she wants to be a Healer, Athan wandering off after Emilie, etc)
‣ No outrageous stuff! (wraith attacks, etc)
‣ But, be creative!
‣ Have fun!!!
I would also like to do a caption contest sometime in the future (maybe as a Part Three thing?)
